The three northbound lanes of Glenridge Drive approaching I-285 in Sandy Springs will be closed nightly through Friday, Dec. 14, to allow crews to do utility work as part of the continuing reconstruction of the I-285/Ga. 400 interchange.

Weather permitting, crews will shut northbound Glenridge between Johnson Ferry Road and I-285, leaving only one southbound lane open, from 11 p.m. to 5 a.m., according to the Georgia Department of Transportation.

The recommended detour around the Glenridge closure is to turn right on Johnson Ferry, left on Peachtree Dunwoody Road, and left on Hammond Drive back to Glenridge. Motorists wishing to go west on I-285 can turn left on Glenridge back to the interstate.

The interchange work affects traffic in the top-end Perimeter area of North Fulton and DeKalb counties. Information: https://bit.ly/2jfU8S7
